Yarn Along


I am working away on another Milo and enjoying it. I love knitting this little vest, and I am pretty sure it’s because soon it will be on a lovely little bundle of joy. Oh how I love babies.

On the reading front, it has been doula reading all week long, all of it interesting and teaching me so much. So excited to be on this path, and looking forward to sharing in the birth of so many lovely little ones.

What are you knitting and reading this week?

    These little vests are so sweet! I've had the pattern queued for quite some time now and I think I should get to knitting at least one!

    Ah, I've seen to many Milos lately. My niece is turning 1 in a few weeks; I may have to knit one up for her.
